The MA560 is not a particularly advanced phone when it comes to some features. It does not have a large rolodex like address-book capabilities and you cannot add multiple handsets to it which allow you to expand the phone system more affordably. But it does have the most commonly used features and it allows you to use them easily and intuitively — which is what counts.

The physical look of the MA560 leaves something to be desired, especially since we put a lot of emphasis on both design and technology here at Designtechnica. But if you can look past its dark demeanor, the MA560 is a very rugged and solid performing phone, and one which we will certainly will compare future cordless phone too. With its rugged design and long lasting battery the MA560 is highly recommended for heavy use.

The MA560 is expected to be available October 2004.
